We as in mom and I were informed by one of your members that at your oyster and ham dinner. Your house and others said a prayer for our son Jacob Yates. Jacob has suffered from a seizure disorder all his life, mom and I know a few of you all by first name, went to school with some and some are family. The few that have been here to the house on calls that involved Jake know him well. One of your members Will lawman on October 10 2001 he responded to a call at our residents involving Jake to we're he preformed CPR twice to resuscitate him. Well 17 years later Jake had his brain surgery to remove the deformities that will stop him from having seizures. We would like to thank Cobb island fire station 6 and all involved with Jake for the prayers and support. He is home and recovering now at this time and if anyone would like to come by to visit him, please fill free to do so. Thanks too all of you all.

Very nice website. Informative and up to date. I was inside your station recently and the cleanliness and order was impressive.

I was rescued Friday about 5:00 pm after I fell off my boat and was unable to get back on. I want to thank all the folks who came out on the Fire & Rescue boat and the folks who met us on the dock. You provide a wonderful service. I was able to sail back to Colonial Beach that evening and return home.

CIVFD,
We stumbled on an accident this morning (26 July) where a lady fell asleep and ran into the woods near Swan Point road. CIVFD responded. Just wanted to say we were very impressed with your professionalism. Very good job. You deserve a pat on the back.
